Rice is a grain, the seed of a type of grass, which is the most widely grown and the most…

Method

Sprinkle a teaspoon cornflour onto a plate, then press the turkey steaks into the cornflour to dust them lightly. Heat the oil in a large non-stick frying pan, until it is really hot. Add the turkey and fry for 3-4 minutes, turning once until golden on both sides – cook in batches if need be. Transfer to a plate.

Add the orange juice, ginger and honey to the pan. Gently bring to the boil. Mix the remaining cornflour with 1 tbsp cold water and stir into the sauce. Keep stirring on a gentle heat until thickened and syrupy, like a sweet and sour sauce. Season.

Return the turkey to the pan. Add the orange and grapefruit segments and heat through gently. Scatter over chives or parsley and serve straight away with rice and broccoli.

Comments, questions and tips

This was underwhelming - maybe because I followed previous tips and left out the grapefruit? I think there's nicer ways to cook turkey.

fabulous! boiled the turkey in the juice probably didn't need the corn flour to thicken as it reduced down enough on it's own, also added a few chilli flakes to spice it up

Should have read the comments first
The grapfruit just makes this vile. However, I would try again without the grapefruit

Really disliked this. Wish I read the comments before I made it. I followed the recipe and found the grapefruit made it taste bitter.

Very tasty. Room for improvement though. Think a little stock is needed to boost the sauce. I would defiantly take the time to segment the orange to add texture. As others said I left out the grapefruit, not needed with the orange, honey and ginger too. Next time I won't worry about putting corn flour on the turkey before cooking. It went a bit soggy and you need more than listed, they fry just fine without it.

Delish! use Del Monte fruitnaturals Red Grapefruit, it's already peeled and in beautiful segments, not to mention it has a sweeter taste.

Nice, simple and tasty dish? Left out the orange and grapefruit segments as suggested and added a bit of chilli to add a kick to it.

I've been reading all the reviews of this recipe and have decided that instead of grapefruit I may use mango. I think it might just make the difference....will let you know once I try it!

Just tried this recipe and really enjoyed it. I did make some tweaks though. Firstly I didn't add grapefruit as I don't like it. I didn't have quick cook turkey steaks and mine were quite thick so I just browned off for colour then set aside. I then added about 200 ml of bouillon stock right after adding the orange, ginger and honey and then brought to the boil, added back the turkey steaks and covered and simmered for about 15 minutes to cook through. This resulted in lovey juicey meat. I preferred to serve with cous cous instead of rice as great for all that lovely sticky sauce.
